A framework to interpret co‐occurrence patterns from camera trap data: The case of the gray fox, the bobcat, and the eastern cottontail rabbit in a tropical dry habitat
In mammals, ecological interactions are difficult to observe directly, so they are usually
inferred from co‐occurrence data. Direct interpretation of co‐occurrence patterns can be …

Forest structure has stronger effects than cattle occurrence on the occupancy of a carnivore guild
Anthropogenic activities can profoundly affect ecological communities. This is true of the
most ubiquitous type of anthropogenic land-use, livestock grazing. While livestock grazing is …
